At that moment, he was distracted.
"Choose one: ask a question or talk to me."
Qi Chong suddenly picked her up, one hand cradling her bottom and the other supporting the back of her head, kissing her neck.
"I choose you."
Today, Qi Chong was impatient; it had been four days since he had last been intimate with his fairy. From the first day Yu Chunmiao ignored him, his curiosity about that unknown world had completely vanished. For the past few days, he hadn’t thought of any questions at all, only ways to coax her.
When a woman truly doesn’t want to pay you any attention, no amount of coaxing will work. Fortunately, his fairy didn’t really ignore him.
Yun Ting Yu Xie, as they finally caught their breath, Yu Chunmiao nestled in his arms and said, "Go ahead and ask."
Qi Chong got up to dress, planting a kiss on her forehead and asking, "Can we do it again?"
Yu Chunmiao smiled gently, pointing at her lower abdomen without saying a word.
"I'll get some water; just wait."
That night, Qi Chong asked the same question twice more, with nothing else to follow.
When he didn’t ask, Yu Chunmiao felt compelled to speak. Exhausted in his embrace, she began to explain the Marriage Law to him.
"Buying a person leads to imprisonment; women can live independently. If they can’t survive without a man, they can divorce; many men won’t mind marrying a woman who has been married before."
Qi Chong was taken aback by what he heard; he felt grateful for this era where he could buy Yu Chunmiao for just a few coins.
Early that day, besides two carts arriving with goods, the Qi Family was visited by two officers.
Because Li Dongmei had a miscarriage, claiming that Yu Chunmiao had pushed her.
The two officers were about to take her away when Qi Chong wanted to confront them but was stopped by Yu Chunmiao.
"I didn’t do anything; the truth will come out. Don’t act impulsively."
Yu Chunmiao pleaded with the officers to let her speak with her family, but they refused.
Chen Ruolan handed over two small silver coins to the officers before they finally released Yu Chunmiao.
After calming the family down, Yu Chunmiao pulled Qi Chong aside and said, "You need to find a witness from Sun Daifu's side. The assistant at the pharmacy saw everything; I didn’t push her. If she went to see a doctor, Sun Daifu should have a record of her pulse. We can’t just take her word for it."
Qi Chong's eyes were bloodshot, and he grasped Yu Chunmiao's hand, unable to speak.
Meanwhile, Chen Ruolan was speaking with an officer nearby. "Could you please tell me where my daughter-in-law will be taken?"
The officer, having received a bribe, was exceptionally polite. "To the county jail. If you want to see her, she’ll be at Qingstone County."
Tears streamed down Chen Ruolan's face. "Will she go to prison?"
The officer replied, "Yes, but if you handle things properly, you might be able to arrange for her to have a clean single cell."
Time was running short. Yu Chunmiao instructed her mother-in-law and Qi Yuan to keep an eye on the house and not to panic.
Qi Chong stuffed all the banknotes from the room into his pockets, preparing to accompany Yu Chunmiao to the county.
He exchanged a few words with the assistant who was loading goods while Qi Yuan harnessed the donkey cart.
Once the donkey cart was ready, Qi Chong urged both the officer and Yu Chunmiao to get in.
Throughout the journey, Qi Chong kept reassuring her that he would find evidence.
Upon arriving in Qing Shui Town, they had no choice but to disembark.
Qi Chong planned to go to Renji Hall to summon witnesses and hurriedly made his way there.
At the medical clinic, Qi Chong first asked the pharmacy assistant about what had happened. The assistant explained that at that moment, he had been facing away from them and only heard them arguing.
After they left, he saw Li Dongmei sitting on the ground but couldn’t tell if she had been pushed.
Qi Chong wanted to ask Sun Daifu directly, but there was a long line outside the consultation room. Unable to wait any longer, he lifted the curtain and rushed inside.
Sun Daifu was currently taking a pulse from a woman. Both he and the patient were taken aback by Qi Chong’s sudden entrance. He thought something had happened to Yu Chunmiao and that he needed to make an emergency visit.
"Why are you here alone? Where’s your wife? What happened?"
Qi Chong quickly recounted the situation. Sun Daifu thought for a moment and confirmed that he indeed had seen this patient a few days ago and had heard the commotion outside his clinic.
